Long Island reached the 7 million fan mark faster than any other team in league history despite having begun play in the ALPB’s third year of existence (2000). The crowd of 6,345 on Saturday was the Ducks’ ninth past - capacity crowd of the year and league-record 672nd sold out crowd all-time. Ferry Cup Rivalry: Today marks the 20th and final meeting of the season and the 352nd all-time meeting between the Ducks and Bluefish. Long Island leads the all- time series 176-175 and has a 98-79 advantage at Bethpage Ballpark. The Ducks also lead the 2017 season series 10-9 and have taken five of nine games on Long Island. With a win this afternoon, the Ducks will earn the Ferry Cup for the sixth time in the nine seasons that it has been played for. The Glue Guy: Elmer Reyes collected a single on Saturday night. The infielder has now reached base safely in 20 consecutive games going back to August 18, earning at least one hit in 18 of them. That’s one game shy of the longest on-base streak by a Duck this year (Marc Krauss, 21, 7/9-8/5). During the streak, he has a .406 batting average (28-for-69) with eight doubles, a homer, 11 RBI, 12 runs scored and seven walks. On the Marc: Marc Krauss drew another walk on Saturday. The outfielder has reached base safely in 13 consecutive games going back to August 26, collecting at least one walk in nine of them. During the streak, the former big leaguer has compiled a .434 on-base percentage with two doubles, three homers, seven RBI, seven runs and 14 walks. Krauss leads the Ducks and ranks second in the Atlantic League with a .405 on-base percentage. He also leads the Flock and ranks third in the league with 78 walks. Burg’s the Word: Alex Burg also drew a walk on Saturday night. The catcher has now reached base safely in eight consecutive games going back to August 30, earning at least one hit in five of them. During the streak, he has compiled a .333 batting average (8-for-24) with two doubles, a homer, three RBI, four runs and four walks. In addition, he has accrued a .429 on-base percentage in that span. What a Relief: Matt Marsh and Amalio Diaz both continued their strong pitching out of the bullpen on Saturday. Despite allowing his first earned run as a Ducks, Marsh pitched three and one-third innings of his longest outing with Long Island. He has a 0.69 ERA in eight games, yielding one earned run on nine hits and two walks over 13 innings while striking out 16. Diaz tossed a scoreless inning and has now given up just one run in his last seven appearances. During that span, he has given up five hits and one walk over seven innings while striking out 10 batters. 1:35 p.m. | Bethpage Ballpark (6,002) | Central Islip, N.Y.

DUCKS NEWS AND NOTES
The Faithful Flock: Since their inaugural season of 2000, the Long Island Ducks
have welcomed an Atlantic League record 7,353,391 fans through the gates of Bethpage Ballpark. Long Island reached the 7 million fan mark faster than any other team in league history despite having begun play in the ALPB’s third year of existence (2000). The crowd of 6,345 on Saturday was the Ducks’ ninth past-

TODAY’S PITCHING MATCHUP

UPCOMING PITCHING PROBABLES
Monday, Sept. 11 6:30 p.m. @ York TBA vs. RHP Victor Mateo (6-9, 4.36 ERA)
TODAY’S STARTING PITCHER
NOTABLE NUGGETS LAST TIME OUT: Jake Dunning suffered his second loss of the season, as the Ducks fell to the New Britain Bees 8-2 on Labor Day. The right-hander allowed a season-high seven runs (six earned) on eight hits in five innings, walking one and striking out six. He threw 90 pitches in the outing, 67 of which were strikes. The Florida resident was victimized by the longball, as the Bees hit three home runs off of him (Conor Bierfeldt, Michael Crouse and Jamar Walton). Six of the runs he allowed came with two outs. A MAN WHO CAN DO BOTH: Dunning began his collegiate career at Florida Community College of Jacksonville, where he played both shortstop and pitcher. Upon transferring to Indiana University, Dunning continued to be a two-way player, hitting .308 in 57 games in 2009. He helped to lead the Hoosiers to the Big Ten Tournament championship that season and was named to the All-Tournament team at shortstop. FAMILIAR FACES: When Jake Dunning arrived to Long Island in mid-July, he was greeted by a familiar face in Ducks catcher Alex Burg. Dunning and Burg came up through the San Francisco Giants organization together in the early 2010’s. Though no longer with the team, injured LHP Jack Snodgrass played with the pair in the Giants system as well.
PITCHER TIDBITS
Began the season pitching in the Chicago White Sox organization, making a
total of 14 appearances between Triple-A Charlotte of the International League and Double-A Birmingham of the Southern League.
Was originally drafted by the San Francisco Giants in the 33rd round of the
2009 MLB Draft out of Indiana University.
Made his MLB debut on June 16, 2013 against the Atlanta Braves at Turner
Field. Dunning logged a scoreless inning of relief against the Braves.
Younger brother, Dane Dunning, is a top pitching prospect in the Chicago
White Sox organization, currently pitching for the Advanced-A Winston-Salem Dash of the Carolina League. Dane was traded by the Washington Nationals along with RHP Lucas Giolito to Chicago in exchange for CF Adam Eaton this past winter.
